The Chief Executive of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), Mr Godwin Kudzo Tameklo, has welcomed a delegation from the Sierra Leone National Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NPRA) on a study visit to the Authority.
The visit forms part of efforts to strengthen collaboration and knowledge-sharing between the two countries.
According to the NPA, the delegation is in Ghana to understudy the country’s petroleum downstream sector, particularly in areas such as policy administration, regulatory framework, and technical advancements.
Ghana’s NPA has long been recognised as a model institution in the sub-region, with its systems and reforms often serving as a reference point for other African regulators.
The two-member Sierra Leonean delegation includes Wuyah Deen Sucarray, Director of Policy Planning and Coordination at NPRA, and Ms Aminata Margaret Kora, Assistant Manager, Human Resources and Administration.
During the visit, the team is expected to engage with key NPA departments and exchange ideas on best practices.
Mr Tameklo reaffirmed the Authority’s commitment to regional cooperation, noting that such visits strengthen partnerships and promote standardisation in the petroleum sector across West Africa.
He expressed optimism that the engagement would contribute to enhancing Sierra Leone’s regulatory framework while deepening ties between the two agencies.
